Download, and install Quick Startup: http://www.glarysoft.com/qs.html
Go File>Export, save report, and paste it into your next post.
I'll help you to sort it out.

I offer the above for the last time.

I'll try again.

You failed how?

As per your advise,I installed "quick start" and saw the items that are there.
Then,as per Socretes's advise,I accessed GOOGLE,and deciphered the items.
Then,I disenabled those that I'm sure are not necessary,ad asked help in determiningany others to disinstall.
I tried to cut/copy and paste to here,but was unsuccessful.
Maybe there is something wrong wit ME or my computer.I have big trouble cut/copy and paste images to anywhere.
I found a poor soul who bet me that the Pats would beat the Giants in the Superbowl.He even gave me 3 points.Now,I have a nice pic of Eli that he would use for his avatar,this month,but I can't get it to the website,
woe is me,

I trimmed the list to 15 entries;one of which I think should be disabled.

Is it worthwhile?

ctfmon.exe  Windows Trojan Backdoor

It depends on ctfmon.exe location, and on program, you used to determine that.

Download HijackThis:

and post its log.
If you can't paste it, you may attach it, using Additional Options... from Reply window.

I am unableto send a screenshot of the data presented bythe snapfile.
I have saved the website in my "favorite" file,and can easily access it.
Can you tell me what Iam doing wrong?
I press PRINTSCREEN with the curser within the text
then I go to this post and RtClick. but Paste is not on the menu
I try the whole operation again,this time pressing ALT and V
Then I try again,this time pressing CTRL and V

I just tried to copy or cut n image from my "PICTURES" page with no success.
My computer is at fault.I wonder if I damaged it when I disenabled some items in my STARTUP.

Hello,
My images are too big;over124 KB
In the "browse",there is a "internet" option
can I access the file that is in "favorites"?
Frank

[Broni]

You don't attach images, you attach text (.txt\log) files. They shouldn't be over 128KB.

I am trying to move this avatar from pictures" to this page
THE ADDRESS IS ENTERED IN THE "BROWSE" WINDOW

That works!
Now,the files that I want are 45046 bytes.
How many bytes in 128 KB ?
I have been unable to get them to a HOST site to shrink them.
